Story[]

Five months prior to the events of the game, Raven and her were on the pier after school. Kelly wanted to find out if a boy she liked would notice her using tarot cards, but it turned up the death card. Not long after the card was drawn, two boys from their school drove up to them, calling her and Raven witches. One boy grabbed her by the legs, and the other grabbed Raven by the arms. They wanted to know if a witch could swim, despite Raven's pleas that she couldn't. They dropped her off the pier anyway and the two boys got back into the car and drove off.
Trivia[]
- Kelly and Benny (from Mr. Grimm's story) are similar in many ways:
- They're the best friends of the respective characters in question.
- Both were killed by people on whom the contestant vows revenge.
- Their deaths caused the contestant to be committed to Blackfield Asylum.
- Her death is a reference to an execution method called "Swimming the Witch", where someone accused of witchcraft was sent to a nearby river, lake, and/or stream; and was forced into said place to prove if they were a witch or not. If the person dies by drowning; they were considered “pure”, however if the person floats, they were considered a witch, and ultimately sent to be burned at the stake or hanged.
- According to David Jaffe during a Q&A livestream, Kelly and Raven were both in a lesbian relationship with each other. Despite this, Raven’s story states that Kelly used the cards to see if a boy she liked would notice her. It is possible that Kelly was bisexual and that either her relationship with Raven was polyamorous, or that Raven was open to the idea.
